Said I didn't Love Him But I Lied

Stainley raised his head to look at the blue sky, deep in thought. "When you had an accident, I thought that if I had been by your side, I would have made sure nothing would happen to you. However, there are no 'what ifs'." "What does it have to do with you seeing Yvonne?"

"Because she's from the Godfrey family. If it wasn't for Theodore, you wouldn't have been framed by Josephine and ended up in your current state. I wanted to do something for you." Stainley knew that what he did was against the rules. However, he couldn't calm down. He wanted to do something for Everleigh's sake.

When she heard his words, she didn't know how to respond. She thought that Stainley's feelings for her would be clear and come to an end in a year's time, but she didn't expect...

"You don't have to blame yourself. I did it on my own will." When he turned around, he happened to see her troubled expression.

She twitched her mouth and said, "You really don't have to do this. I thought I made it clear between us."

"It doesn't matter. I'm just listening to my heart," Stainley said before he left.

She felt more and more guilty.

When Everleigh returned to the ward, Hansen couldn't help but ask, "Aunt Everleigh, why didn't Alastair and Adrienne come?"

"They are at school. When they are on holiday, I'll bring them here to accompany you."

"Okay. I'm so envious of them. Alastair is so kind to Adrienne." He felt envious.

She smiled. "You have a sister too, don't you? Does Loraine treat you badly?"

He shook his head as disappointment filled his eyes. "Ever since she went to the Godfrey family, she hasn't come home much. She isn't happy either."

Everleigh's eyes sank slightly. Of course, she knew that Loraine would not be happy. Knowing her, she would definitely refute if she was held hostage by her own mother like this. However, there was nothing she could do most of the time.

"Where's your father?"

"Daddy and Mommy always get into a fight whenever they meet. I don't want to see them." He pursed his lips, looking upset.

She had more or less guessed right. Something must have happened for Yvonne to get into Godfrey Group.

Although they had met a few times, she could not read her personality well.

When Everleigh returned home that night, the members of the Meyer family had all arrived, especially Mrs. Meyer. When she saw Everleigh, she quickly walked over and said, "Everleigh, you're finally back." "Mom, why are you here?" Everleigh asked in surprise.

"I heard from Christopher that you're back. Come and let me take a good look." Mrs. Meyer held her hand, smiling. She looked at her tanned skin and found that Everleigh was much fitter than before.

Felicia looked up and said, "I'll take you for a facial treatment tomorrow. You'll get your original skin tone back in two days."

Everleigh touched her face and said, "Thank you, Felicia."

Selena saw them get along well like this but she didn't say anything.

In name and status, Everleigh was still the mistress of the Meyer family.

Christopher came too, and the Trevino family home was filled with laughter, with everyone looking happy.

Felicia went to the small garden, sat on a rocking chair, and watched the sunset. Smelling the flowers, she indulged herself in the moment.

Everleigh came over to her with a cup of coffee and called out, "Felica."

"Thank you."

"Why don't you sit inside?"

"It's much cooler here. I haven't congratulated you. Nothing serious has happened during your time abroad." Felicia took a sip of the coffee. Although her tone was cold, Everleigh could still hear the concern in her voice.

She smiled and said, "I appreciate your concern."

"Now that you know what happened to the Godfrey family. What's your plan?" Felicia asked.

Everleigh was caught off guard.

"What do you mean?"

"When you left, Theodore locked down the airport. Didn't he propose to you?"

Felicia's words were not surprising but they startled Everleigh. "Didn't they block the site that time? How could she know?" She thought.

Felicia said with a smile, "Don't worry. No one else knows about this."

"Since you already know, why are you still here?" Everleigh didn't want to hide anything from her. Deep down, she felt bad for the Meyer family. Although they knew everything, they were still willing to take her in as their daughter-in-law. Christopher said that it didn't matter.

However, it made her feel even worse.

"Because I like you. You and I are very much alike. This is why I wanted to help you." Felicia turned her head, and her eyes looked wistful.

Everleigh didn't expect such an answer. She wanted to help her all because they shared a similar personality?

It was a little hard to believe.

"Felicia, you're quite an easygoing person."

Felicia looked at the sunset and said with sadness in her tone, "Not at all. I've been playing by the book all these years and never did anything I wanted to. I'm very envious of you."

Everleigh was slightly dismayed. It was the first time that she had seen such a look in Felicia's eyes. There was sadness and desolation in them. What could've happened for her to feel like this?

In her eyes, Felicia had always done things meticulously, just like Theodore.

The afterglow of the setting sun shone on the two of them, just like their hearts at the moment.

When Mrs. Meyer came to get Felicia, she returned to her usual demeanor and told Everleigh, "If you want to help Theodore, you have to watch out for Yvonne. This woman is more shrewd than you think." Everleigh was stunned for a moment, then immediately responded, "Okay, thank you for reminding me."

Felicia smiled and turned to leave.

Everleigh stood at the door, feeling that things were getting more and more complicated. Perhaps she should meet up with Theodore.

At the same time, Theodore was sitting in his office, listening to the staff report about their work. However, his expression was not as cold and stern as before.

"Mr. Godfrey, we can't go on like this."

"Isn't Loraine the vice president? Just give it to her," he said in a deep voice, but there was no light in his eyes.

"Mr. Godfrey..." Moses stood aside and said in a low voice. It had been a year and Theodore had been absolutely lifeless since he came back from the airport. Was he really going to be wiped out like this?

"Leave." Theodore leaned back in his chair tiredly. His deep eyes were closed and his brows were knitted together. It was obvious that he didn't want to hear anything.

The staff members sighed softly, turned around, and left.

They had been working under him all this while so when they saw him like this, they felt bad too.

After the staff left, Moses couldn't hold it in anymore. He asked earnestly, "Mr. Godfrey, you can't go on like this. Do you really want Yvonne to take charge of everything? You hired these people to work for you. Think about how hard it was for us to get to where we are today..."

"Moses, don't you know what kind of person I am?" Theodore interrupted him. He stood up and looked at the distant scenery as his deprivation faded away.
